he Telugu version of Dhurandhar: The Revenge is set to make its theatrical debut on Saturday, arriving two days after the Hindi version’s release. The film is already enjoying massive craze in the Telugu states. In Hyderabad, the Hindi version has emerged as a dominant release, even challenging the strong presence of Pawan Kalyan’s Ustaad Bhagat Singh. All eyes are now on how well the Telugu-dubbed version of the Ranveer Singh starrer will perform at the box office.
CBFC suggests corrections
The regional version failed to make it to theatres on March 18 for its evening premieres, leaving fans disappointed. Many took to social media to express their frustration after receiving cancellation messages. The delay was due to the CBFC mandating specific corrections and modifications. Despite receiving an Adult (A) certificate, the board suggested around 21 changes, including muting certain abusive words and trimming scenes of graphic violence. Major cuts were recommended for sequences depicting extreme violence, such as a beheading scene, “eye-smashing” visuals, and attacks involving cement blocks and hammers.
